If a simple public works project requires this much police presence to keep out the objecting public, then perhaps the decision makers should consider that their decision does not reflect the true desires of the public they supposedly represent.

Leafs down by a couple with 3:30 left and game ops is playing Hava Nagila on the organ. Just zero feel for setting an atmosphere.

As a reminder, the entire reason this specific bike lane is somehow under the purview of the Provincial Government is because our moron Premier has to pass it on his way to his job (on the rare days he goes to work) and the sight of a cyclist passing his SUV in traffic makes his blood BOIL

NEW: Canada's Department of National Defence has already more than doubled the value of its new contracts with American tech giants this year. Mark Carney pledged to cut back on contracts with American tech giants as part of a “Buy Canadian” strategy. www.readthemaple.com/national-def...

Matty knies potting 2 goals and adding an assist in his CBJ debut is the most Leafs coded thing to happen so far in this young season. Really looking forward to watching Columbus in the cup final this year.

"minimum-wage workers employed 40 hours per week stand to make an additional $728 per year. " Another way to say that is $14 a week. These people are so underwater trying to survive. $14 a week isn't going to move the needle. share.google/4HLqKZ3Ncsm3...

Updates from the pro-Israel lobby: #AviLewis should remember that God killed Jews who argued with the authority of Moses. And Canada should start prosecuting people who protest Israeli war propagandists who speak under the auspices of religious worship.

behavior like this is genuinely disturbing. like this will obviously just be changed back day 1 after trumps regime is over but its just deeply sad, not even demoralizing, just pathetic

Google Maps has now capitulated to Donald Trump and changed the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America. Apple Maps still uses the correct name.

Dolly Parton rose from poverty to stardom. She gave $500 to every student in her hometown who finished high school; she built hospitals & bald eagle preserves; her Imagination Library has gifted 300 million books to children. Roger Ebert met her and came away thinking she was a literal angel. RIP.

Didn't expect Minneapolis to be the battleground for the fight against fascism but I've never been there

Calling these people "Settlers" is some wonderful use of racist colonial language. You can't settle land with people on it in 2026. It's just straight up theft during an ongoing genocide.

It is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.

They so get it. They get what they are doing is illegal. They are aware of the criminality. They just don't care.

Tom Cotton: "Ultimately, it's not about Prime Minster Netanyahu and Israel -- it's about arresting Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio in the future if they ever travel abroad."

The same folks who want to subsidize an oil company's pipeline, and buy new fighter jets and submarines will tell you there isn't much they can do about the out of control wildfires.

While Ontario is blanketed with smoke I'd like to point out this only started happening like 3 years ago. I hate living during a climate catastrophe.

Carney calling Lindsey Graham a defender of democracy and freedom when the man made jokes on his official X account about taking over Canada is just the last straw of many last straws for me.

Someday I want to see a really well reported story from the Iranian side on how they managed to systematically destroy the entire US military base archipelago America had built and relied on for decades, and why the US couldn’t protect them. We kind of shrug and move on but it’s astonishing.

In the right-left divorce the left got bud light, wrestling, and algae.

Watching Toronto try to do what every major city in the world does without a problem is like watching the guy try to crack an egg in an infomercial. It doesn't have to be this hard. Zero reason for an outsized police presence in the village of all hoods. share.google/wupsHTs4lRq5...

If you're 6'8 and can do a little bit of everything on the basketball court but not one thing really well, the Toronto Raptors want you on their team.

I'll never fully understand how Barnes, Siakam, and OG couldn't work in 22. Why they took so little for Siakam. Why they didn't get a single first round pick for OG. Now that mastermind has a fresh 5 year deal. Happy for you though. #knicksinfive

Still totally weird that Canada is playing in the FIFA World Cup today, 2km from my front porch. This is football like we've never seen in this country. Our idea of an "Ultra" is Steve Dangle. 🇨🇦🍁

Prediction time! The Knicks didn't expect the lights to be so bright at MSG. President Pudding Brain was a total distraction. A communist immigrant takes over The Garden and the Spurs are back in the series at 2-1.

It really gets to me that the internet is flooded with updates every time one of a dozen or so heinous dudes farts, but we have to struggle to find the artists and writers and musicians and scientists and cool local events. I am recommitting to amplifying better stuff.

Love this new Toronto summer tradition of everyone just hating Rogers "Stadium" for different reasons and having an awful time going to see huge artists.

The actual Gestapo at least had a uniform. I can't get over these guys with their Amazon tactical gear. Little militia clubs unleashed on the American public.
